I tried to post this yesterday and it was deleted. The truth shall set you free... if students of this persuasion have the audacity and the gall to say things like this to our faces in our own university classrooms, we are in trouble. The nation without leadership willing to deport these people will cause many more of us to be killed.

My friend, who was sitting in the class session mentioned above, told me the student said, "...America is getting what it deserves."

[DoughtyOne]

Was he the only middle-easterner in the class? What did the other ones do?

[Nachum]

Iraq can shove it up their assets. They tried to build nukes (and still are), started the war with Iran, tried to obliterate the Kurds, they invaded Kuwait, dropped scuds on Israel during the Gulf war, doused our boys with chemical or biological weapons, and went back on every thing they agreed to after the Gulf war was over.

I would not be surprised if they were the ones who helped train the pigs who flew the plane. Up their assets with a red hot poker.

[LoneGOPinCT]

At the same time, America should have seen this coming, because for many, many years they've been supporting, with American tax dollars, aid to countries which kill innocent civilians.

Yeah, the Israeli's are unprovoked.

[Saundra Duffy]

The Muslim student agrees with Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. Go figure. For victory & freedom!!!

[neutrino]

Seriously, we need to be aware of the possibility of a domestic fifth column. I hope that our Government prepares for the eventuality.

[alithia]

the first long term security thing they should do is cut student and other visas from Arab countries. Cut all immigration from those countries and Algeria.

[AppyPappy]

Your friend should have crushed the creep.

[drew]

This is one of the pitfalls of our wonderful free and open society (this whole attack is, really). It disturbs me that people actually believe such things, but thus is the problem in a democracy.

[aculeus]

These people will be shut up the old fashioned way ... by knuckle sandwiches.

[Marauder]

Kick his @$$ out of school, Houston, Texas, USA, back to whatever little pigsty country he comes from.

[timestax]

Well I guess the handwriting is on the wall!!

[timestax]

Human life means NOTHING to those Islamics and Arabs. They could just slice up a person and kill him/her/baby/mother,etc. and feel good about it.

My point=they don't revere life like other people do.

[Rome2000]

This is the weak resolution the Senate is working on. Compare it to a real declaration of war from 1941

SJ 22 ES

107th CONGRESS

1st Session

S. J. RES. 22

JOINT RESOLUTION

Expressing the sense of the Senate and House of Representatives regarding the terrorist attacks launched against the United States on September 11, 2001.

Whereas on September 11, 2001, terrorists hijacked and destroyed four civilian aircraft, crashing two of them into the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, and a third into the Pentagon outside Washington, D.C.;

Whereas thousands of innocent Americans were killed and injured as a result of these attacks, including the passengers and crew of the four aircraft, workers in the World Trade Center and in the Pentagon, rescue workers, and bystanders;

Whereas these attacks destroyed both towers of the World Trade Center, as well as adjacent buildings, and seriously damaged the Pentagon; and

Whereas these attacks were by far the deadliest terrorist attacks ever launched against the United States, and, by targeting symbols of American strength and success, clearly were intended to intimidate our Nation and weaken its resolve: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That Congress--

(1) condemns in the strongest possible terms the terrorists who planned and carried out the September 11, 2001, attacks against the United States, as well as their sponsors;

(2) extends its deepest condolences to the victims of these heinous and cowardly attacks, as well as to their families, friends, and loved ones;

(3) is certain that the people of the United States will stand united as our Nation begins the process of recovering and rebuilding in the aftermath of these tragic acts;

(4) commends the heroic actions of the rescue workers, volunteers, and State and local officials who responded to these tragic events with courage, determination, and skill;

(5) declares that these premeditated attacks struck not only at the people of America, but also at the symbols and structures of our economic and military strength, and that the United States is entitled to respond under international law;

(6) thanks those foreign leaders and individuals who have expressed solidarity with the United States in the aftermath of the attacks, and asks them to continue to stand with the United States in the war against international terrorism;

(7) commits to support increased resources in the war to eradicate terrorism;

(8) supports the determination of the President, in close consultation with Congress, to bring to justice and punish the perpetrators of these attacks as well as their sponsors; and

(9) declares that September 12, 2001, shall be a National Day of Unity and Mourning, and that when Congress adjourns today, it stands adjourned out of respect to the victims of the terrorist attacks.

Passed the Senate September 12, 2001.

Compare that wimpy drivel to this:

JOINT RESOLUTION

Declaring that a state of war exists between the Imperial Government of Japan and the Government and the people of the United States and making provisions to prosecute the same.

Whereas the Imperial Government of Japan has committed unprovoked acts of war against the Government and the people of the United States of America:

Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the state of war between the United States and the Imperial Government of Japan which has thus been thrust upon the United States is hereby formally declared;

and the President is hereby authorized and directed to employ the entire naval and military forces of the United States and the resources of the Government to carry on war against the Imperial Government of Japan; and, to bring the conflict to a successful termination, all of the resources of the country are hereby pledged by the Congress of the United States.

Approved, December 8, 1941, 4:10 p.m. E.S.T.

Apparently there is some major funny business going on in the Senate, even in this time of "bi-partisanship".

I am disgusted.

Please US House save us from this insult to all who have died.

[muir_redwoods]

He's wrong. I hate what he says. I'd like to kick his a$$ but he has the right to say it. That's, in part, what this fight is all about. We don't have Imams and Mullahs telling us what to think and what we can say

He's still a jerk

[Texbob]

I wonder what this terrorist will be saying in the Houston Class when his buddies get the hell bombed out of them? I am telling him now, "they got what they deserved".

[Dan from Michigan]

No one better say that in front of me.

[xm177e2]

The one thing left waiting to happen: A small number of Muslims will begin faking hate crimes to get attention and show how evil patriots are.

[joathome]

A handful of Muslim students cheered at another university here in Houston. How do I know? Because my daughter heard them and was quite distraught over the matter. I'm afraid she's grown up a bit this week.

[RightOnline]

""Nobody cares (about the deaths of Muslims overseas). It doesn't make the news headlines, and it's a hush-hush thing."

Well, shoot, Young Iraqi Student.............your own fellow countrymen over yonder don't give a flyin' fiddler's damn, either. Why should we? You primitives have been slaughtering each other by the bushel for centuries.....yet you think we should give a s**t?

"But as soon as 35,000 to 50,000 Americans die, it's a big deal.""

Ummmmmmmmm...............yep, College Student. Rhodes Scholar. You got that right. You also win the "Understatement of the Year Award".

What a twit. He deserved a beating just because of his stupidity.

[mrustow]

"Everyone is going home because (they are) worried about their safety," Samuel said. "We're lumped into one group because we're dark-skinned with a common heritage."

This kid is a hypocrite. Out of one side of his mouth, he complains of being "lumped together," while out of the other, he says he should be lumped together: "because we ... [have] a common heritage." As an Indian, the idiot has nothing at all in common with Arabs -- including skin- color -- yet he identifies with them. Then he has nothing to complain about.

Meanwhile, the Islamic student, Jafri, sides with our enemies, yet condemns US for intolerance. He says that the U.S. suports "the slaughter of Palesitinians." But no "Palestinians" are slaughtered -- they only die by choice, as suicide bombers, while attacking Israeli soldiers, etc. According to that logic, America is guilty of "slaughtering" the WTC, Pentagon, and PA suicide bombers, too. And this young man's professor is no better -- he merely thought the student's timing was bad, not his message.
